20 Weeks

Here I am at 20 weeks!

Feeling pretty good for the most part. Still having problems breathing, and since I know its not going away anytime soon, then I will just deal with it. Sleeping great, getting around pretty good. I am getting tired of people saying how huge I am. Not sure if they realize I am carrying two babies in here. My OB assured me that my weight gain is perfect and I shouldn't worry about anything. It would be nice for people to keep comments like that to themselves. Although I am getting pretty good with the dirty looks so maybe they will start getting it pretty soon.What is that saying, "If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all".

Well we are heading out for a camping trip tomorrow. Going to Natural Falls. I love this area. Not sure I will be able to hike down this trip to see the waterfall, but maybe :) I am also going to see my in-laws this weekend and get my refinished rocking chair and some other things for the girls. I have a feeling the nursery will be done within few weeks.

I think you look fantastic! You'll have to get used to the comments, I'm afraid. They will continue long after you have those babies as well. They will just be more like "Are they twins?" And you will attract a lot of attention when out and about. Just fair warning! :)

It's so nice to hear you talk about the girls in such an excited way. I love it! You look great and so happy. I got really big really fast in my pregnancy so heard lots of comments. Sometimes I just lied and told strangers my due date was much sooner so I didn't get the looks. People can definitely say unintentionally mean things.

Get use to the comments sister.. and the looks, and whispers.. People have NO filter and with twins comes hugeness, obviously I know! Every week when I go to the hospital for my NST I here at least one "I bet she is here to have the baby" or "I bet she doesn't leave today". I have only had one person ask if I was pregnant with twins, every other is " that baby is due any day now huh?"

About Me

Hi everyone! I married the love of my life on April 24, 2010. I guess it took a little longer then I thought to find him. I do have a daughter and she is 16 years old. I got pregnant with her when I was 20, wow have times changed. I never thought that having a second child would be such a challenge. Here I am 38 and ttc. We have 7 iui's under our belt and two failed ivf attempts and 5 chemical pregnancies and 1 miscarriage after seeing a heartbeat. Everyday of struggling hopefully brings us one day closer to having a baby or one day closer to moving on without one.
Recently I was diagnosed with:
Positive APA Panel, ANA, Th 1/Th2, Factor XIII mutated, PA1 mutation, MTHFR mutation. Working with Dr. Kim and a new protocol.
